  Shoring is a type of construction that is used to prevent the failure of any structure. Generally, the unsafe structure uses shoring construction to ensure that the wall does not collapse under any condition. Shoring is used when the wall that has been standing for a long time shows any signs of bad work or patchwork caused by bad construction, when the structure next to the wall needs to be dismantled, need to repair the wall or when there are openings that need to be made to enlarge the wall. Some people think that shoring is similar to retaining the wall. Both are different and have different uses and methods to solve the problem. You need to hire experienced piling contractors in UAE to complete the  shoring work . On the city side, special care needs to be taken while doing the shoring work. The traffic work must not be affected while also keeping in mind that other buildings properties must not be affected by the shoring work. To ensure smooth working of the ...

The summer and monsoon season brings a lot of challenges when it comes to trench shoring. The shoring contractors in Dubai offer you tips on how to handle it and how to maximize the safety of the workers while reducing the chances of a cave-in. 1. Categorize the soil type properly The shoring contractor can help you to categorize the soil type. For example, there are different kinds of soils that have the direct impact on its productivity and strength of the trench. If you are doing shoring works, the soil classification is important. For example, if there is a lot of moisture content in the soil, a sloping needs to be installed. If the soil doesn’t have additional moisture content and it meets the benching criteria, it can be used as an option along with shoring. 2. Inspect the trench The water inside the trench can make the process less efficient. Hence, before starting with shoring works, it is important that an experienced person should inspect the trench properly be...

With multiple construction projects going on in Dubai and the UAE, the focus is on the real estate development market and the processes it follows to enable world class construction quality. It is this superior quality that lends international level of durability even in harsh climatic conditions of the desert kingdom. Dubai has witnessed the building of towers that are more than 100m high. With this, the architecture concepts are regularly being challenged with towers getting taller and complex. The various risks emanate from more complex structural engineering practices mounting challenge in loads to be resisted by their foundations. One of the areas of interest that has captivated world attention is the use of piling technologies. A good piling company in Dubai will use its distinct characteristic to withstand strong winds, sandstorms, and unstable ground conditions to erect architectural marvels in the form of high-rise buildings. What makes the piling...

In the field of civil engineering, safety plays an important role in the overall construction and infrastructure/property development process, as it reduces the uncertainty factor. In piling works , it is important to precisely determine the factor of safety. Proficient piling contractors in Dubai can help you to do that. The Important features that affect the safety factor There are several factors upon which the safety depends upon The kind of structure whether it is temporary or permanent The Sensitivity of the structure The Extent of soil exploration Nature of loading considering the assumption The Extent of quality control during the construction phase It is recommended that the factor of safety should lie between 2 and 4.

Shoring work is useful in supporting a structure to prevent a fall down of a building or a construction project. The most common shoring techniques that we use during the early stage of construction that is an excavation are as follows: H-or I-beam shoring Secant Pile Shoring Contiguous Pile Method Sheet Piles Diaphragm Walls Here, today we will discuss secant shoring .  When the building construction project is to be erected on soft ground or sandy soil at that time secant shoring pilling method (wall) is required. The main objective of this kind of shoring is to make sure that the stratum behind the wall would remain intact during construction. Secant shoring also ensures protection from the hazard due to high sideways pressure. To prepare a method statement for the secant piling shoring and secant pile wall an engineer must have proficiency in that.      How secant pile shoring is done?   Secant pile shoring is done by inte...

Have you ever thought how bridges, buildings were made in Dubai? How did the architects and engineers come up with a stretch of solid rightly curved bridges supported only by a few foundations? The secret behind it is shoring. Shoring is not only utilized in bridges and buildings but it also used in provisional support of a structure, trench, or a vessel. All this is made possible with the help of the horizontal, vertical, or angled shore that provides support to the weight of the mentioned structures. In short, shoring contractors do the shoring works in the United Arab Emirates to support the unsafe structures of the construction sector and ensure efficiency at work. Let’s have a look at 5 major reasons why the shoring should not be taken lightly especially in the construction industry. 1. It Enhances and Guarantees Safety of the Employees The construction industry itself is a very dangerous job. When workers are working on a construction project, they need ...

Worldwide expenses on energy and transport continue to increase as the nation’s race to progress financial performance. Billions will be spent on Dubai’s roads, offshore oil, and gas production facilities, renewable energy facilities, pipelines and tunnels over the next 2 decades. Without a doubt, such investment is essential for infrastructure development and for the appropriate development, it is necessary to properly understand the engineering behavior of the earth and its materials. What is Ground Engineering? Ground Engineering, a branch of civil engineering, provides latest and well-researched reports of soil and their interaction with the water. These reports provide information on the trending topics in the soil engineering field. This incorporates the study of the sites, foundation, piling, and the tunneling procedure. The report also measures innovations in technologies. In ground engineering, the contractors focus on the following things. ...
